In the early morning, the sun shines through the paper windows and falls on the ground.
Lin Ji closed his eyes and felt his nose was a little itchy.
He knew it was Zhong Xiaoyan fiddling with the ends of his hair, but he chose not to open his eyes and kept breathing evenly.
It's so pitiful that people have lived in two lives.
He finally slept with the girl in his arms for half the night.
It's more comfortable than sleeping alone.
Even though he hasn't done anything yet, he actually has some taste.
If this does anything, then it's okay. .
Zhong Xiaoyan teased him for a moment, then seemed to notice something was wrong, and suddenly hit him hard with his knee.
Lin Ji stared suddenly and bowed fiercely, like a curled-up Pippi shrimp.
"Are you crazy? Is that a place where you can stand?"
Zhong Xiaoyan's pretty face turned red again, she glared fiercely and pushed Lin Ji off the bed.
"Who told you to act like a hooligan early in the morning? You promised it last night!"
"Who told you to be so beautiful? It's wrong to be unable to help yourself?" Lin Ji retorted.
"I..."
Zhong Xiaoyan swallowed the words as she spoke. This reason seemed to be very useful to her.
"Hmph, even if you are right, it's dawn and it's time to get up."
Having said this, Lin Ji couldn't help but lick his face and climb into bed again.
After taking a rest and changing into clean clothes, he took Zhong Xiaoyan to meet his parents.
It was already the third day that Zhong Xiaoyan had arrived in Yucheng. She had long been acquainted with Lin Yuxuan and Chen Mei, and everything that should be questioned had been thoroughly questioned, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
At noon, the family had a meal together.
Lin Ji mentioned what happened to Lin Chun last night, intentionally or unintentionally, and successfully gained Lin Chun's resentful look.
Anyway, when he returned to his courtyard after dinner, Lin Ji could even hear the heart-rending screams coming from the front hall, like a slaughtered pig.
"You're not old, but your screams are pretty loud. You deserve it." Lin Jim closed his eyes happily, preparing to take a nap to the sound of his brother's screams being beaten.
Zhong Xiaoyan nestled next to Lin Ji.
I took a nap until the afternoon.
Originally, Lin Ji was planning to take Zhong Xiaoyan for a walk in Jade City, but before he could go out, someone came to the door.
It's Murong Ge.
"Why are you here?" Lin Ji was a little surprised. He and Murong Ge were not familiar with each other. They just went on a business trip together.
Moreover, he was the one running errands. Even though Murong Ge was somewhat intelligent, he was just cannon fodder.
There is no mention of personal relations.
Murong Ge looked at Zhong Xiaoyan curiously.
"Who is this?"
"My future wife." Lin Ji said without thinking.
Hearing this, Murong Ge was a little surprised.
"It turned out to be Lin Youxing's Taoist companion..."
"It's not a Taoist couple, it's a lady who wants to get married, the kind that a matchmaker is marrying." Lin Ji corrected her.
If they were Taoist lovers, they would just break up. If the two parties have some differences, or they can't help each other, they may just grow old and die without contacting each other.
This is not uncommon.
Therefore, Lin Jicai deliberately wanted to correct it.
Zhong Xiaoyan, who was on the side, originally saw Murong Ge, and she was still a little resentful in her heart. She had only been here for a few days, and this guy provoked other girls.
But when she saw Lin Ji introducing herself calmly and correcting these minor details righteously, the unhappiness in her heart flew to the horizon.
Murong Ge took out a small jade bottle and handed it to Lin Ji.
"This is...?"
"Yuanling liquid is the product of the refining of the Resentful Spirit Bead." Murong Ge said, "This is the two-thirds share of the refining Earth Sheep Resentful Spirit Bead, as agreed before."
Lin Ji suddenly realized.
"So this is what happened, it only took one night, and it was done so quickly?"
"Refining something like the Wraith Spirit Bead is not troublesome, it's just that the method is a bit special and it doesn't take much time." Murong Ge explained casually.
Glancing at Zhong Xiaoyan again, she seemed to have disturbed Lin Ji consciously. She stood up and said, "The things have been delivered. I'll take my leave."
"Thank you." Lin Ji stood up and bowed slightly.
After Murong Ge left, Zhong Xiaoyan asked curiously: "What kind of treasure is it?"
"It can help the soul to cultivate, but I don't know how effective it is...but it doesn't take much effort to get it, so it's better than nothing."
As he said that, Lin Ji thought of Zhong Xiaoyan's cultivation level again.
"What state are you in now?"
"It's the middle of the fourth realm."
Only a few months after breaking through to the fourth level, Zhong Xiaoyan has made another big step forward.
I have to say that she is what a genius in this world should look like.
Lin Ji said: "Then the later stage is not far away. Does your Zhong family need any help to break through the fifth realm? It is not easy to open the soul. This soul spirit liquid may be able to help you."
"Isn't it just the fifth realm? If I want to break through, I can break through. You can keep this thing for yourself, I don't need it." Zhong Xiaoyan said coaxingly.
Hearing this, Lin Ji frowned slightly and said, "Don't be brave, and don't underestimate any bottleneck. The most taboo thing in cultivation is arrogance."
"Hmph, don't think you are the only one who is a genius! The Lihuo inheritance of the Zhong family points directly to the Tao. If I follow the path of my parents, it will be easy to break through to the seventh realm before I turn 100."
Lin Ji could hardly believe his ears.
"Is there such a thing?"
"How do you think the Zhong family can become one of the most powerful forces in Xiangzhou by relying on a single direct lineage? The reason is that our inheritance has never been cut off."
Speaking of this, Zhong Xiaoyan glanced at Lin Ji again.
"Otherwise, why do you think my father is so anxious to find me a son-in-law? Isn't it just to keep the Zhong family's Li Huo going? In the end, you got an advantage."
"I haven't taken advantage yet." Lin Ji subconsciously answered.
"I knew you didn't mean anything good. You were dishonest last night!" Zhong Xiaoyan glared at Lin Ji angrily, "You can find a place to sleep by yourself tonight."
After the words fell, Zhong Xiaoyan stood up and went back to her room.
Lin Ji got up to give chase, but was still turned away.
"Don't even try to take advantage of me before we officially get married." Zhong Xiaoyan's voice came out.
Lin Ji knocked on the door for a long time, but Zhong Xiaoyan didn't open it.
"Why can't I control this bad mouth?"
He regretted the thought that the night's Ru Ruan Huai program would be cancelled.
After trying a few more times and getting replies from the bastard, he realized that he really had to get married before he could be intimate.
"That's all. I've been here for so many years. Am I still afraid of waiting a few more years?"
Lin Ji came to the side room of the small courtyard.
The bedding in the side room is all uniform, and he is not particular about people, so naturally he won't care about this.
He took out the small bottle containing Yuanling Liquid and pulled out the cork.
A fragrance floats up.
There is nothing to hesitate about. Since Zhong Xiaoyan doesn’t want it, he can only take advantage of it.
After drinking all the Yuanling Liquid in the bottle, Lin Ji soon felt that the spiritual energy in his body was moving faster.
After a while, the little Yuanshen being nourished by Dantian also opened his eyes and jumped into his mind.
"I desperately want to practice." Lin Ji felt as if his soul had been stimulated. At this moment, absorbing the power of the moonlight to practice would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
It's not dark outside yet, and although the moon has risen, there is still some afterglow from the sun.
"Wait a little longer." Lin Ji thought to himself.
